Description

Violette Thibaudin, the exhibition’s curator, will make a special appearance to lead this tour of the exhibition, which explores the artistic practices of the Aboriginal peoples of Northern Australia as expressions of their connection to the land and the sacred.
Through paintings, everyday objects, and Dreamtime stories, the exhibition shows how art, memory, and cosmology connect places, people, and knowledge. Still very much alive today, these artistic practices continue to contribute to the continuity of Aboriginal societies. In the heart of the Central Desert, Arnhem Land, and the Kimberley regions, Australia’s First Nations peoples draw upon a wide range of resources that enable them to inhabit, understand, and represent the land.
